Re: WHRE Announcement
After careful consideration of the College's programmatic needs, the Senior Management Team has
decided to close the Department of Work and Human Resource Education (WHRE) and to transfer its
programs to other departments within the University. The human resource development and adult
education programs will be aligned with the Department of Educational Policy and Administration.
Decisions about the remaining WHRE programs will be made after additional evaluation. These changes
will become effective July 1, 2009.
All students who are already enrolled in WHRE will graduate from their current programs. Students who
are incoming during fall 2008 and spring 2009 will also remain in the programs to which they were
admitted.
The College and the University value the rich history and the outstanding contributions of the Department
of Work and Human Resource Education, its faculty, and its staff.
The Senior Management Team will share any additional information as it becomes available.
